Description
Christian considerations of leadership are prevalent and growing. Undergraduate, graduate, and doctoral programs exist in business schools, universities, and, of course, seminaries, worldwide.
Further, leadership ethics is an ongoing concern and interest. This book receives and builds on these interests by focusing specifically on leadership educators because leadership education is an expanding field, stretching into business and non-profit contexts in addition to educational institutions.
This book preserves, enriches, and expands the future of leadership education by exploring the intersection of faith, leadership education, and ethics.

Reviews
"In a season marked by profound disruption in education, Perry and Pladdys’ thoughtful curation of essays serves as both a provocation and a guide for educators in Christian higher education. Engaging the rich intersections of theology, leadership, leadership education, and ethics, these writings spark critical thinking and ignite fresh insights. The intellectual tensions they explore will expand your faith, challenge your assumptions, and help to renew your commitment to the sacred vocation of forming ethical, future-ready, Christ-following leaders--both inside and beyond the classroom."
- Connie Erpelding, Ed.D, Director Of Development at Indiana Wesleyan University/Wesley Seminary, USA
"This timely text speaks into the complicated dance between the moral culture in North America and the calling of Christian higher education to represent Christ’s admonition to be both discerning students of the culture and unalloyed citizens of the Kingdom. The editors have gathered Christian scholars from a variety of disciplines to advance moral discourse and to offer a practical, field-tested guide for impactful teaching and learning across the curricula."
- Tim Beuthin PhD, Professor in Organizational Leadership, Division of Leadership and Followership, Indiana Wesleyan University
